Answer:

B. People face trade-offs.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

A. Larry can use time most efficiently by spending the same amounts of time on swimming, biking, and running.

B. People face trade-offs.

C. People usually exploit opportunities to make themselves better off.

D. Larry has an incentive to spend more time on swimming than on biking or running.

The basic principle that these choices illustrate is that people face trade-offs when trying to decide what the right course of action is at any particular moment. In this example, Larry has three tasks that he needs to complete: swimming, biking and running. However, dedicating time to one of this leads to less time for the other ones. Therefore, Larry faces a trade-off. This concept is closely related to the idea of opportunity costs.

Why was New Orleans destined to be the center of slave trade in the southern United States
Sonbull [250]

The geographic location of New Orleans made it, along with Savannah, an ideal center of the slave trade in the United States.

New Orleans sits on the Mississippi on the Gulf of Mexico. As a result, ships carrying slaves could go from anywhere in the world and have access to the river systems of middle America where slaves were being used.
